General Hospital’s Wedding To Die For: Will Michael’s Plan Succeed Or Be A Major Fail?

This week on General Hospital, Michael (Chad Duell) and Nelle (Chloe Lanier) are set to tie the knot as Michael has fast-tracked their wedding date all part of his plan to bring down his fiancée!

Michael has now taken it upon himself to free his mom, Carly (Laura Wright) from Ferncliff and he wants to prove that his mother is innocent, is not insane, and did not cause Nelle’s fall down the stairs. Will his plan work, or backfire? That plan puts him in ca-hoots with another man, Chase (Josh Swickard), who wants payback for ‘Janelle’s’ attempt at ruining his career, and who is all too familiar with the drowning death of Nelle’s ex.

But in this latest promo from ABC, dressed in her bridal gown, Nelle walks down the aisle as Jason (Steve Burton) disapproves. “Til death do us part.” a conniving Nelle exclaims.

Now, what will actually go down? Will Michael fake his death and set Nelle up for it? Will Nelle try to kill Michael? Share your thoughts and theories in the comment section below, but first check out this week’s promo.

You know it’s bad when all you can think of during all this is, “Wow, Michael looks good in a tux.” So far Nelle has outwitted everyone so I’m not sure this will be her comeuppance yet. At least we get to see more of Chase.

Very funny, but actually have read she goes out with a big bang, or explosion. I sure hope its after the baby is born.

They wouldnt kill the baby. Its another murder mystery that I’m sure will suck! At least Carly will be locked away and not a suspect. The suspects will be Sonny, Michael, Ava, and Chase. All of which could go be with Blackie for all I care!

Say what you will about Chloe Lanier and this storyline, but, she is a great actress! I think she is smart to jump ship. She has her Emmy and she has done an outstanding job delivering this material. I wish her well in her future endeavors. As far as this storyline, I hope there is a “catch”, a real surprise for us viewers. With Colonel Sanders visiting “Heiny’s Hospital” we are do for a soapy treat. The show has been unwatchable for the past few (if not more) months.

You know, dmr, I was watching Chloe the other day and couldn’t get over how great she is in this role. She said something to Michael that was sincere but, behind her eyes, I started thinking, “She’s on to him”. That’s what a multilayered performance should be and she truly deserved that Emmy. I hope she isn’t gone forever. Evil hasn’t been so well-acted since Maura West joined the show.

I think Nelle is on to Michael, too. Michael isn’t very smart, and Nelle is very devious and can outsmart them, all! She has street smarts!

Hi, dmr, Could the big surprise be the baby is not Michael’s? Oh, how I wish that were the case!!!!…..I desperately hope Carly does not get her hands on another baby. Somehow, I get this nagging feeling that Lucas and Brad will be involved in the baby-drama in a big way. As far as Michael, I consider him a nonentity and waaaay toooo big for his britches…..he tries to do the Sonny-stare, which Is so annoyingly-Sonny; but works … yet, it is lost on Michael……not a charming guy….he does as much for me as Devon or Kyle….and now Nate ( Y&R). I have missed a few eps…..still have not had the chance to catch-up….but, I sense that TPTB are trying to make it look like Sonny killed AJ in self defense?? Gimme a break–say it ain’t so!! I will never forgive Michael’s betrayal–his best acting, I feel, was when he stood up to both his mother and Sonny and took Avery. I saw a man then….took the bull by the horns and ran with it. This whole thing of ” let’s get Nelle” scheming is pathetic…..I’ve seen better sleuthing on Nickelodeon.

Celia, I caught the show the other day, and “The Dimpled Don” mentioned killing AJ right in front of Jason and Michael, neither flinched. Now, I haven’t watched religiously, but, I don’t recall Jason knowing that Sonny killed AJ. Jason has returned, and is CarSon’s lapdog, and Michael thinks he is the next “Enforcer.” The kid has no brains. I share the same opinion with you about Devon and Kyle on Y&R. Daytime TV is in the gutter.

You are right, Jimmy. Joss caught on. What will happen is anyone’s guess. I’m stumped. I had ideas, but Carly’s charging-in like a bull…ummm…dozer ( clunky shoes or not), deflated my brainstorming and dimmed my lightbulb.

I can’t figure out whether Michael of GH or Sonny of DOOL is the dumbest. Really? Marry a psycopathic killer to bring her down? What has marriage to do with it? All anyone has to do is ask the most important question. (pay attention Jason) Who went upstairs after the accident? If Carly is telling the truth, somebody took it. And Sonny? What numbnut CEO who is being accused of sexual harassment meet with the accuser? And who would cover up what was most definitely self defense? Good grief.

Sonny makes me laugh-especially when he tries to be all “gangstah” with his hair slicked by packing heat! HAHAHAHA! Seriously, Sonny, you don’t have what it takes to pull it off! & in today’s world, what company doesn’t have an updated Harassment Policy/investigation practices?-so stupid!

You are too funny, dmr….How many times have I said that Sonny has the Vito Corleone syndrome? I guess Sonny has never been to Sicily….the mannerisms are waaaay off and Sonny’s affectation doesn’t even come close. Doesn’t even look Italian—-he should probably mimic another bandido…..Italians have a distinct accent….regional, even in their own country. So Carly got out of Hades…..did Kevin/Ryan facilitate her escape somehow. So bizarre…..as nutty as Mary Pat. She belongs there ….with the loonies.

I agree ConnieMac. It’s supposed to be Drew with the memory loss, not Jason. I mean, Nelle works with Ava and pals around with her on occasion, what else does he need to know? As far as Sonny on DAYS…it’s a good thing Freddie Smith is so handsome (though the chest hair is too much for my taste), because his character often elicits giggles. And not the intentional kind. But that smile and that gorgeous hair go a long way. And I’ll really miss one of my favorite daytime actors, Greg Rikaart. Hopefully GH can find a spot for him.

Thank you, ConnieMac….Exactly!! As I said, this is all child’s play. The cover-up business is actully comedic…..this is drama?? You mention Sonny Kiriakis—-another dumb move ( I do Love Sonny K) , en par with “let’s get rid of the body in the rug” brainstorm—–self-defense on both counts. If this new “plot” of marrying Nelle to “trap” her was designed to prop-up Michael; to give him the “jewels” to be a man? I don’t know what to say—-failing miserably. Michael is the ‘forever-boy’ for me. Another thing? I am done with the Carly-Kevin sessions ( if he is, indeed, Kevin)……I will chalk them up as some of the most painful scenes I have ever seen—-does anyone really care about her nostalgic memories with Morgan?……or, coming to grips with his death so she could go on with her life?…..is it her own guilt of having been a non-existent, selfish mother?…..seems to me she was doing just fine appropriating another woman’s baby. Good or bad, Ava is Avery’s mother…….and, what makes Carly a ‘better’ parent? Good grief is right!!! Right up my alley…..

Nelle is one of those soap opera characters who will never pay completely for her sins. She may be taken away but one day but she will escape only to come back and wreak havoc once again. Or… she will evade this trap, taking the baby (or perhaps leaving it in a safe place for Michael, thereby showing a shred of humanity), and the threat of her return will always remain hanging over Carly and Co.

This whole story and this sneak peak does NOTHING for me! I really dont care if Michael dies and Nelle takes Chase out as well! Who cares anymore? GH is a shell of itself and Frank has cheapened the show into a high school play!

Well said, Timmm. Half the fun of daytime is making fun of the dumb stuff. For example, when have we EVER seen a soap detective as smart or diligent as Olivia Benson from SVU or any of the forensic folks from any CSI? Paul Williams is denser than concrete. And Dante? He spent more time on his hair than on any case.

Because that’s what we do, Jillie…..more out of loyalty….then we come on here, as warranted, and give out take on plots, situations, and whatnots. It is a natural reaction…..those who love soaps, truly loooove soaps, become disenchanted and almost hurt by the nonsense that is taking place in practically all the shows. It seems they are copying each other….no variables. I think the PTB should hear this—-no effort or originality. Have they run-out of ideas? I hope not….the thought is funebral.

Marci Miller Final DAYS Episode Airs Today As She Shares Heartfelt Goodbye: “Thanks For The Sweet Ride, Abby”

November 19, 2018

In two years time, Marci Miller became a household name in the daytime arena as one of the brightest talents to grace the soap opera genre in a very long time.

Now today on Monday November 19th, viewers of Days of our Lives are watching her final episode as she wraps up her run as Abigail Deveraux on the NBC soap opera.

And what a run it was! Earning her a Daytime Emmy nomination for Lead Actress this year, and a possible nomination next year, Miller was heralded for her gut-wrenching performances in the DID storyline (Dissociative Identity Disorder) where she played Abby’s alters, Dr. Laura and Gabby. Not to mention her complex love story with Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn).

On key episodes today, Miller’s Abby goes toe to toe with a vindictive Gabi (Camila Banus) who gloats how Abby ended up back in a sanitarium … thanks to her!

Miller made the decision to leave DAYS and pursue a career in feature film and primetime TV roles

In an Instagram post, Miller shared:”This is a picture of me 2 yrs ago, painting my nails (and a dear friend’s while I’m at it) for a screen test the next morning to play a woman named Abigail Deveraux Dimera on Days of Our Lives. Who would’ve thought?! This morning I sit in the same exact spot knowing that today, my last episode will air as this beloved character. I reflect, and am grateful. I am better for having been a part of it all. Knowing I’ve laid her in a pair of loving and capable hands does me good. Thanks for the sweet ride, Abby. My heart is full today. Xx #Days#Milly#Chabby”

So, send your well-wishes to Marci here as we give her a standing ovation for an incredible job well-done for her portrayal of Abby et al. Will you miss Marci? Share your thoughts via the comment section below.

Intriguing casting news out of Port Charles on Sunday. The ABC daytime drama series has tapped former Fresh Prince of Bel-Air star Janet Hubert to play the character of Yvonne,who is said to be a love interest for Mike (Max Gail) at the nursing home he is now in.

According to EW.com, Yvonne will end up having a connection to someone or someones on the canvas.

Hubert’s first episode is slated to air on December 7th. Sitcom fans remember Janet from “Fresh Prince’ in scenes with Will Smith in the series in the role of Vivian Banks.

GH is not Janet’s first soap, either. She appeared on One Life to Live as Evangeline Williamson’s (Renee Elise Goldsberry) and Layla Williamsom’s (Tika Sumpter) mother, Lisa. The actress also appeared on All My Children as Alice Dawson.

In another twist, Hubert will reunite with Vernee Watson (Stella)om GH. The two appeared together on “Fresh Prince”, where Watson played Will’s mother.

So does this mean that Yvonne and Stella are both going to be romantically interested in Mike Corbin?

What do you think of the casting news? Interested to see this next leg of Mike’s story as he declines from Alzheimer’s, but may find love? Comment below.

Soaps Lift Boycott Threat Of Daytime Emmys

November 17, 2018

In a key move to allow those performers in front of the camera and behind the scenes crew and creatives to be acknowledged for their accomplishments this calendar year, the four daytime dramas collectively have decided to lift their threatened boycott and participate in the upcoming 46th annual Daytime Emmy competition.

This comes after the four network soaps (Days of our Lives, General Hospital, The Bold and the Beautiful, and The Young and the Restless) banded together after being unsatisfied with snafu’s coming out of the 45th annual Daytime Emmy Awards earlier this year in April, and a list of grievances and concerns they asked to be addressed by the organization that administers the Emmy contest.

Then, following an internal investigation by NATAS by the law firm of Fletcher, Heald & Hildreth of Washington, DC, the results which were released on November 8th, and being in receipt of their findings, the soaps decided to move forward while still having concerns they want addressed.

In a statement from the group, a spokesperson related to Deadline, who broke the story late Friday: “As a group, we are not in agreement with all of the conclusions that NATAS reached. However, in the spirit of working with NATAS and the TV Academy on improving the integrity of the Daytime Emmys, we have lifted our boycott. We look forward to meeting with NATAS to discuss their findings and our concerns in greater detail.”

On Saturday, someone close to the situation said to Michael Fairman TV: “Our participation doesn’t mean we accept their proposal moving forward, we still have major issues that we will be discussing with the Chair and President (of NATAS), but as a collective whole, we don’t want to penalize our actors for NATAS’ mis-management.”

The 46th Annual Daytime Emmy submissions began earlier this week on November 12th, with the Daytime Emmys slated to be handed out in early May of 2019.

So, are you glad that the network soaps have lifted their threatened boycott so that your favorite performers, whose performances you have loved over the last 11 months can be acknowledged for their talents and hard work? Share your thoughts via the comment section below.
